Assignments

Weekly assignments are usually posted toward the end of the weeks, and are due the following Wednesdays at 5PM, to my office. (Do not leave the assignments in my mailbox.) No late copies will be accepted unless pre-approved. Discussing problems with others is encouraged, but each is required to work by him/herself on the final copy to be turned in.

Further help and Advice

• Confused about the material? Your first resource should be the office hours offered by the teaching assistants and the myself. Office hours are also a good time to give me feedback on the class. If you prefer to make anonymous comments, please leave a note in my mailbox.
• Please write neat and complete solutions to the problem sets. "Neat" means well structured, not only esthetically, but also logically. "Complete" means that the grader will need to see a sufficient amount of explanations and details to give you full credit, even if the question only asks for a numerical answer.
• The Center for teaching and learning offers free drop-in tutoring and one-on-one appointments for students in the 50's sequence. Follow this link for times and locations. "The tutors do offer a different sort of help than TAs might. Our tutors are undergraduates who have been trained to ask questions that lead students to come upon solutions on their own. The tutors have succeeded in the class in the past."
• The Stanford University Mathematics Organization (SUMO) offers free drop-in tutoring for students in the 50's sequence. Tutoring is available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00- 10:00 p.m. in room 380-381T of the math building.
